Everyone needs a luck or not....

I heard many times people say "he is lucky"... "this time my luck doesn't work" etc.... Do you really feel that these are the sensible statements???

    Jun 24 2012: believing in luck is dependent upon what has transpired in your life. People who have been more fortunate don't believe they were lucky. People who have been less fortunate believe they were unlucky. What is true?

    Jun 24 2012: When things really go your way and you didn't expect it to - that is 'luck'. The question is, are you then going to depend on 'luck' each time? For me the answer is a simple no - I have been given an opportunity by the universe and now it is my turn to do my share. It's good to feel optimistic about 'luck' but it is only half the story.

    Jun 21 2012: I think some people are a little more fortunate to be at the right place at the right time call it luck or fate. They just seam to have things a little let's say better than some.

    Jun 20 2012: Luck is a concept of not knowing and is an easy explanation. There is no such thing as luck. We don't need luck; we need sincere endeavor and good planning. Be ready for things to go wrong or for failure-----if the time isn't right or circumstances do not allow a successful plan. Bad luck? No. Circumstance.
